Summary
I am an outgoing student currently pursuing degree in Communications and Journalism.
Having grown up in Thailand and traveled plenty, I bring my own quirks, knowledge and cultural connections, and this is partly why I love telling stories so much.
I've had leadership experience in previous jobs, thrived in stressful situations and I can bring a lot of those skills with me, but ultimately, I am simply willing to learn.
